Abstract

Quantum communication protocols offer the promise of enhanced security, privacy and efficiency for network communications.  A large-scale quantum internet would require the development of several components, including multiqubit state preparation, efficient and secure quantum channels, and quantum state measurements. This talk will describe our recent work on developing, assessing and improving multiqubit quantum protocols and resources for network communications, including controlled teleportation, key agreement and quantum private comparison.
